HOW DO I ENROLL?

Villanovans in COMMUNITAS embrace new friendships and unique academic endeavors while navigating the college experience together.

New Student Orientation and the First-Year Experience

"My learning community gave me my best friends. They were the first group I felt comfortable with around on campus; they made me feel known. It was only a week into my first year when I realized that I would instinctually refer to my dorm room as my 'home' in conversation on campus, and I attribute that entirely to my learning community family."(Simon, '21, Leadership)
